Inspiration

A dietician recently told me I should eat more starchy carbs.

What it does

Recommends recipes that use ingredients that meet my specific dietary needs. In this case, starchy carbs.

How I built it

Filtered CoFID's data to build a list of foods that contain more than 5g of starch, sorted

Challenges I ran into

Extracting the subset of CoFID data I was interested in from the spreadsheet and converting it into something I found easier to work with.

Matching foods in the CoFID data with their equivalents in the recipe database.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

What I learned

There are many food-related APIs but not many of them are free to use.

What's next for chiflenut

Additional filtering by personal preference and other dietary needs, including allergens.
